Client Love

We went on a boat trip today for my Bachelorette party. It was so much fun and they were so accommodating and did a great job!

Captain Young has a neat business set up on an Iowa Lake! She was great with communication and flexible with our group and more flexible with the potentially uncooperative weather. We were still able to get out on the boat for a few hours. It was nice to have Brenna and Jaycee take us around Lake Saylorville. We wish the weather and algae would have cooperated a little more, but you can’t control everything! If you’re in the area and need a different experience and a day out, be sure to check her out!

I had the pleasure of experiencing a Party on the Lake birthday party, and it was an amazing time. Captain Young and her first mate JC were very professional and knowledgeable. Our group was able to anchor, swim and hang out on the unique floats. The Captain even jumped in with us. Overall, I’ve been on many pontoon trips, but not having to worry about designating a driver made this one even more enjoyable. Thanks POTL team!
